Capitaland and Hotel Properties Ltd will be launching the former Gillman Heights condominium site with a $1.4 billion design by Ole Scheeren of OMA. The Interlace with a sprawling 81,000 sqm (871,560 sqft) land and a GFA of 170,000 sqm (1,829,200 sqft) will be configured into a 1,040-unit development next month.

Ole Scheeren is the man behind the design of China Central Television (CCTV) Headquarters in Beijing. His previous work includes the Prada Epicenters in New York City and Los Angeles. Just look at the breathtaking and bold architecture design here.

Imagine this. A 31 apartment blocks of six storey each, stacked hexagon ways. On top of which, sky gardens and roof terraces are key features with the surrounding Telok Blangah greenery. A mixture of townhouses (which could double up as home offices), 2-bedrooms, 3-bedrooms, 4-bedrooms and penthouses will be available as part of its offering in this 99-year leasehold project.

I like the description used by The Inhabitat for The Interlace, Jenga-Like apartments.
